Timing and Variability of Galactose Metabolic Gene Activation Depend on the Rate of Environmental Change.

Modulation of gene network activity allows cells to respond to changes in environmental conditions. For example, the galactose utilization network in Saccharomyces cerevisiae is activated by the presence of galactose but repressed by glucose. If both sugars are present, the yeast will first metaboli...
